You can't use roller rockers on a slider cam...

The cranks/rods/pistons/blocks are all the same for the EFI turbo motors. The pistons and blocks are different on the carb turbo motors. The cranks/rods are the same as NA 2.3 motors.

Why don't you be more specific about what you are wanting to do? I hate playing guessing games, and I refuse to do a brain dump on all things 2.3 turbo...

If I were you, I'd got to turbo ford and start searching trough the archives. The board is down right now, but the archives work.

i do apologize for not telling my future plans,

i want to run 9.5:1 comp, and run about 18 LBS of boost, i've found a site that talks about high comp low boost = the same amount of power

i want to build a reliable 2.3 that get's some 20 MPG, but does the boost scootin boogie.

my goal right now is about, 400 HP, i'd love to push as much as possable with the stock 35 lb injectors, i was gonna go with a a ajustable fuel pressure regulator,

money is no object really...this project is over about 1 year, gettin like ..500 a week to put in to this project, so i don't really care,

i was thinking about goin with a racer walsh head or some thing ...
